The debut Yorkshire Ability Triathlon saw more than 30 children with a range of disabilities taking part in swimming, running and biking under blue skies at Leeds Beckett University.
Organised by Triathlon England’s Yorkshire Committee, there were smiles all round as young people completed the three sections at their own pace, cheered on by parents, carers and volunteers.
Last year’s inaugural Yorkshire Ability Triathlon received 100% positive feedback from participants and their families - and this year we look forward to delivering an even bigger and better event that will create memories to last a lifetime.Take a look at this video of the 2023 event:
Each young person’s experience at the Yorkshire Ability Triathlon unfolds within a supportive community that celebrates diversity and perseverance. Here’s what some of them said about the event:
